4. Nuclear power plant development scenarios and analysis

4.1 Scenario studies

Specific studies, known as scenario studies, are used to analyze the two main fuel cycle evolution options that 4th generation systems could offer: multi-recycling of plutonium alone, and transmutation of AM or americium, in homogeneous or heterogeneous mode.
